Grammy Award-Winner Esperanza Spalding is Pushing the Boundaries of Music | Amanpour and Company

Esperanza Spalding is a force of nature – a bass player and singer who rose to stardom when she became the first jazz performer to win a Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2011. Spalding grew up a musical prodigy in Portland, Oregon, where she learned the violin at age five. She has gone on to win four Grammys and to teach at Harvard University. Her newest solo album, 12 Little Spells, is nominated for two Grammy Awards this year. She joins Walter Isaacson to discuss pushing the boundaries of musical genres -- and how sound heals the soul.
Originally aired January 24, 2020.
